While in Superior recently for work I came across this sculpture of James J. Hill, whose "name became synonymous with railroad innovation and visionary business leadership in the last quarter of the nineteenth century" according to The American Experience.

"Robber baron" or "constructive genius"?

This statue stood in front of the Superior Jr. High for many years and was recently relocated to a spot outside the BNSF offices in Superior.
